Trying to find Franklin Line descendants Oklahoma
My (paternal side) grandmother was Laura Viola Nobles. She first married William Levi Franklin about 1890/1891 in Paris, Logan County, Arkansas. She and Levi will have the following children: James F., Lester E., Ollie F., Nora L., Willie Lee, and Naoma Anne Franklin. By 1900 Laura and her husband can be found in Indian Territory, Choctaw Nation, living in or near the Township of Choate Prairie only James and Lester are reflected on this census as children in the home. William Levi Franklin was born 17 Dec 1859 probably in Arkansas ? He will die 18 June 1909 and is buried in the Choate Prairie cemetery with headstone. Laura Viola will remarry a second time to my grandfather, Thomas Jefferson Bynum on 26 January 1910. The son, James F. Franklin will die in a drowning accident on 12 March 1921. Lester I know nothing about and little on the daughters. I vaguely remember Nora and Naoma Anne Franklin as a child. It is my understanding that Ollie F., Nora L., and Naoma Anne Franklin will all move to California sometime in the 1940s.
Laura Viola Nobles Franklin Bynum died on 16 November 1957 and she is buried at Choate Prairie cemetery in Pittsburg County, OK. Information taken from her death certificate reflect that Ollie F., married and her married name was Kencey and as of 1957 was living in California. Nora L. was married to a Epps and she was living in Modesto, CA., and Naoma Anne was married Hildrith (spelling??) and was also living in Modesto, CA.
Looking for descendants of these families.
